ICAR Scientists: Pay Package and Career Advancement

Pay scales for ICAR scientists are adapted from the University Grants Commission's (UGC) scales for teachers. Hence, revised pay scales of ICAR Scientists shall be exactly same as per the M/O HRD letter dated 02.11.2017. The date of implementation of the above revised pay shall be 1st January 2016.

The rationalized entry pay for Scientist in the pay band of Rs. 15600-39,000 with RGP of Rs 6000, 7000 and Rs. 8000 will be Rs. 57,700, Rs. 68,900 and Rs. 79,800, respectively.

iii) The rationalized entry pay of Senior Scientist in Pay Band of Rs 37400-67,000 with RGP of Rs 9000 will be Rs. 1,31,400 whereas entry pay of Principal Scientist, HOD/HoRS/Project Coordinator/ADGs/Directors/Project Directors/National Fellow in same pay band with RGP of Rs. 10,000 will be Rs 1,44,200.

iv) Director (NAARM), National Professor & DDG will draw entry pay of Rs 2,10,200 whereas Directors of IARI, IVRI, NDRI & CIFE will be given special allowance of Rs. 5000/-.

In December 2017, the governing body of ICAR considered the revision of pay scales of ICAR scientists as per the recommendations of the 7th CPC Pay Review Committee of UGC/MHRD and approved the proposal.

The governing body considered the proposal to grant HAG scale to the ICAR scientists in line with UGC under MHRD. The governing body approved the adoption of HAG scale in ICAR for 20% of the strength of principal scientists, based on their performance, and all ADGs and directors of the institutes. Whoever earns HAG will continue to draw this grade even after the completion of his/her tenure as Director/ADG/DDG. However, providing this higher grade will require the approval of the Finance Ministry before implementation.

Pay Fixation Method (7th Pay)

In the new system as per 7th CPC, concept of research pay and pay band is changed to level and Cells. The first level (Corresponding to RGP of Rs 6000) is numbered as RL 10. Other levels are 11, 12, 13A, 14 and 15. Fitment factor or Index of Rationalization is 2.67 for RGP less than Rs.10,000 and 2.72 for the AGP of Rs 10,000 and above.

The pay matrix is shown in the table shown below in the snap.

On January 1, 2016, the existing pay (Existing Pay in Pay Band + RGP) in the pre-revised pay as on 31st December, 2015 shall be multiplied by a factor of 2.57. The figure (product so arrived) is to be located in the Level (corresponding to pay band and RGP in the new Pay Matrix. Equal or next higher cell in the Level (if equal is not available) shall be the revised pay. In case figure arrived is less than the first cell then pay shall be fixed in the 1st Cell of that Level.

If more than two stages are bunched together, one additional increment (3%) may be given for every two stages bunched.

Promotion

Whenever an employee gets a promotion, he would be given a notional increment in his existing Level of Pay (moving to next higher cell) and the pay in the cell be located in the new Level to corresponding post (promoted one).

Increment

Important change as per 7th CPC is that there shall be two dates for grant of increment namely, First January and first July of every year. Earlier there was a single date for grant of increment ( First July). However, increment date will depend on the date of appointment, promotion or grant of financial up-gradation.Rate of increment is 3 percent. Annual increment is given in the pay matrix table.

Important Features of ICAR Pay Scales

It has only three designations for scientists: Scientist, Senior Scientist, and Principal Scientist.

The term “Research Grade Pay” (RGP) shall be used in place of "Grade Pay" for the scientists.

Different RPGs of Rs. 6000, Rs.7000, Rs. 8000, Rs.9000, and Rs.10000 have been approved for scientists.

Since CAS system is devised in such a manner that Scientists possessing higher qualifications (M. Phill, Ph.D.) may progress faster than their counterparts having only PG degrees, there shall be no incentives in the form of advance increments for obtaining any higher qualifications. .

All allowances will continue to be drawn at the old rates until allowances are revised by M/O HRD. NPA will also be revised later with other allowances.

Age of superannuation will remain unchanged as 62 years for Scientific cadre.

Amendments Made in December 2017

The following amendments have been approved by the governing body in its meeting in December 2017.

1. Promotion from Scientist RGP Rs. 6000/- to Scientist Rs.7000/-: No change. Continue as per the existing system.

2. Promotion from Scientist (Sr. Scale) to Sr. Scientist (i.e. RGP Rs. 7000/- to Rs.8000/-): The top 90 percentile of scientists due for assessment in a particular year should be promoted subject to their securing 70% marks on the scorecard.

3. Promotion from Sr. Scientist (RGP 8000) to Sr. Scientist ( RGP Rs. 9000/-): The top 80 percentile of scientists due for assessment in a particular year should be promoted subject to their securing 70% marks on the scorecard.

4. Promotion from Sr. Scientist (RGP 9000) to Pr. Scientist ( RGP Rs. 10000/-): The top 70 percentile of scientists due for assessment in a particular year should be promoted subject to their securing 70% marks on the scorecard.

Career Advancement Scheme

Here is the eligibility to move from a lower RGP to a higher one:

From RGP 6000-7000:

four years for those possessing Ph.D.

five years for those possessing M. Phil/M.V. Sc/M.Sc (Ag)/M.F. Sc/M. Tech

six years for those neither having M. Phil nor Ph.D

From RGP 7000-8000:

five years in RGP of 7000

From RGP 8000-9000:

three years service in RGP of 8000

From RGP of 9000 to 10000:

Three years service in RGP of 9000 and must obtain a Ph.D.

Tips to succeed

As evident from the eligibility period given above, Scientists moving from RGP 6000 and 7000 get sufficient time to conduct research work, draft reports and publish their work compared to those moving from 8000 or 9000 to higher RGP as these get only three years' time for assessment of their work. Scientists in 8000 or below RGP are assessed within institutes by DPCs but those in 9000 RGP are assessed by ASRB for upward movement to 10000 RGP.

This scheme became effective in January 2009. Since the scorecard system was implemented for career advancement, many deserving scientists have failed to score the minimum score due to their casual approach in filling their assessment proforma. It takes a lot of time and requires great attention to individual items since many items score very low (0.5 -2 marks/item). NAAS scoring is another important aspect for research papers. Few tips are given below to Senior Scientists involved in research and serving in RGP 9000 for promotion to Principal Scientist in the 10000 RGP.

- For promotion from Senior Scientist to Principal Scientist, a researcher should try to acquire at least 60 marks out of 80 marks (excluding interview & presentation) so that he or she attains 75 marks (minimum marks needed for promotion) out of 100 marks assuming 15 or more marks in the interview.

- One need to fill up a form appended at the end of score card in which list of enclosures/supporting documents in respect of each of the items in the score card has to be furnished mentioning page number of each item. This should be filled with utmost care clearly indicating page number of each item. Competent authority needs to verify that all the items exits on the given page number. Therefore, assesses should devote sufficient time for making entries in the score card. It may require somewhere between a week to month time.

- Ensure maximum involvement in institutional or external research projects as Principal Investigator (PI) or CO- PI to secure maximum or as much as possible marks out of 15 marks assigned to achievement in research.

- Item ‘Technology spread and impact across the system’ carries 3 marks. If there is any variety or technology that has been widely accepted, provide its detail. There is a scope to give a list of research papers (max. 3) that has been cited by many researchers. It can be found from Google Scholar that provides no. of citations for individual research paper.

- If a scientist is involved in teaching or guided students as guide or Co-Guide, 5 marks are achievable depending on magnitude of work. This section includes many items such as Technology Inventory prepared, monitoring of trials, success stories, customized instruction materials, advisories, filed day, farmers’ fair organized etc. to claim 5 marks.

- Scientists should endeavour to publish three to four research papers in NAAS rated journals and publishing as first author helps to secure more marks than as co-author. If one succeeds to publish 3 or 4 research papers (as needed as per the score card) as first author even in research journals assigned 4-6 NAAS rating, chances becomes very fair to get promoted.

- Publications other than research papers are assigned 5 marks. These include edited books, booklets of 25 -110 pages, popular articles, technical papers etc. Try to publish as per the items and their marks given in the score card.

- Scientists need to attend national and international seminars and workshop and deliver lectures as it helps to secure few marks. Try to get certificate of attendence as these certificates are needed as evidences to support participation claims. Awards for the best research papers or poster are also importantas these adds to securing marks.

Question:

If I worked at an ngo kvk as SMS and got selected as Program coordinator in the pay scale of 15600-39100 AGP8000 subsequently i joined in SAU as assistant professor with AGP 6000 for want of job security. I want to get my previous with AGP 8000 protected at SAU, how to get it?

Answer:

If you are serving in ICAR or University KVK, you will not be allowed to apply in a lower scale post. However if you are from NGO KVK, your pay will be from the organization being offered.

What about Employees holding Ph.D degree in the capacity of TA/ Prog. Asstt/ Trg. Asstt (doing job of teaching, Research & extension), in SAU govern both by State Govt. & ICAR, shall they have chance for promotion to AP/ Scientists cadre as has been given in Dharwad, Anand Agriculture University to Demonstrator and Field Officer

My case is similar to that of Dr.DP Singh. I joined ICAR as Scientist S 3 on 29th November 1979. I got promotion as Scientist S 4 through Assessment by ASRB. After introduction of UGC Scales , I am redisignated as Principal Scientist was fixed at 4500 basic whereas a person who was Junior to me and joined as Scientist S 3 and joined in December 1979 was placed at 4800 rupees basic in UGC SCALES as principal Scientist although he could not get promotion as S 4 Scientist through assesment by ASRB. I suffered loss and faced humiliation of drawing lesser pay than my Junior despite working hard and getting promotion through Assessment. . It only shows that ICAR has no respect for merit, talent and hard work.

I was a direct entrant as Scientist S-2 in Feb 1972,then direct S-3 in September 1979 and got promoted as S-4 on assessment from July 1985. On 1.1.86 my pay was fixed on 4500 with next increment on

July 1986 while pay of those S-3s who cold not be promote to S-4 got fixed on 4500+150=4650 pm. S-4 being senior grade was denied antidating of the increment equal to those S-3s who were junior to me. The reason given was that becoming S-4 lost the advantage of antidating because S-3 S-4 are two separate grades. The most important point is that during 4cpc Grades S-3 and S-4 were merged. It's really funny that despite being senior my increment date was from July ie 6 month later every year.

I understand in the previous cpcs in such situations seniors were

promoted/ or increment antidated to them. The above anamoly continued till my retirement ( March 2007) and resulted in fixation of my pension relatively at lower level. It's a heavy loss financially and psychologically of course.

Is there any principle/ rule to set this embarrassing situation corrected

The health index- of average Indians life span has been extended 65 years, because of medical advancement. The superannuation at 60 years of age is pre-mature retirement, at this age, normally an individual's wisdom exhuming stage and willing to share one 's acquired accumulated experiences, with the fellow colleagues, students and family members. Ordering such ripened individuals to go home, in my opinion it is pre-mature harvest of fruit. To enjoy the fullest use of it for organizational development, the superannuation has to go up to 65 years, not 60.

I joined ICAR as Scientist S 3 during November 1979 through direct selection by ASRB , I got promoted as Scientist S 4 during July 1985 after five yearly assessment conducted by ASRB. From January 1986 I became principal Scientist with implementation of UGC Scales. I served as Head of the Division (1979 to 1984 ) and as Project Coordinator (1984 to 1994). During 1994 suddenly ICAR found that I am not qualified to be a Head of the Division or Project Coordinator after serving in these positions with distinction for more than 14 years as I am not having Ph.D degree although I had more than 50 publications in International Journals apart from more than 100 papers in Indian Scientific journals. I was not given charge as officiating Director when the position fell vacant and person who worked as Junior to me under my supervision and guidance was given charge as officiating director which was great humiliation for me. I swallowed my pride and continued to work with great humiliation till my retirement due to family responsibilities and personal commitments.

Some scientists join as a Sr Scientist in ICAR through Direct recruitment in PB-3 during 2006-2009. In some institute service rendered as Assistant Prof. in University in pay scale of 12000-18500 have been taken into consideration for granting PB-4 with RGP 9000 inICAR. But in some institute within ICAR itself scientists required to serve for three year as Sr Scientist in PB-3 with RGP 8000 for grant of PB-4. Some on may clarify what is correct on following aspect

1. Whether scientist is to serve for three year in PB-3 with RGP as Sr Scientist for grant of PB-4 in RGP 9000

2. Whether service rendered as Assist Prof. pre revised scale of 12000- 18500 in university may be combined with service rendered as Sr. Scientist in PB-3 with RGP 8000 in ICAR for grant of PB-4 wit RGP 9000.

I am in need of your guidance in the following matter:

I am working in the Junagadh Agricultural University(State Govt. Undertaking) and benefited with Career Advancement Scheme before 1.1.2006 from Associate Professor to Professor (PROMOTION) in the Pay sale 16400 -22400, which was in 6th Pay commission revised in pay band 37400-67000 + 10000 AGP and now I am drawing basic pay 69,720/- (59720+10000 AGP). To remove the world “PROMOTION” from my designation, I appeared in direct selection and have been selected as Professor and it equivalent post in the same pay band 37400-67000 + 10000 AGP in the same university, i.e. Junagadh Agricultural University with probation period of two years. I joined my new duty on 24.03.2015. Now, my pay is fixed as 69,720/-(59720+ 10000AGP) at 24.03.2015 with Date of Next Increment 1-7-2016. So, there is no monitory benefit due to direct selection, but I do have loss of one increment which was due on 1-7-2015 in original position.

Kindly guide me that pay fixation done by authority is correct or not. If no, then what should be my protected pay on 24.03.2015 and Date of Next Increment?

Dear AKSLK, it appears you could not get it correctly. There is anomaly in CAS system of ICAR & UGC. In case of direct recruitment to PS, a Senior Scientist becomes eligible only if he has served for three years in RGP of Rs 9000 after getting awarded Ph.D. However, in case of UGC CAS, an Associate Professor would become eligible the day he gets awarded Ph.D. after completing three years in AGP of Rs 9000/-.

Dear Nagendra, no increment is admissible to PS. One is entitled for three advance increments if he acquires Ph.D during the continuance of the cadre of Sr. Scientist. Increments are admissible only to Sr. Scientists. Its a tricky situation if one becomes PS on the day of award of Ph.D. However, one has to complete three years in 9000 RGP after the award of Ph.D. in the ICAR. As per UGC pay package, all the teachers are designated as "Associate professor" and they becomes eligible for Professorship on the day of award of Ph.D. if one completes 3 years as Associate professor in 9000 AGP.

I am eligible foe AGP 7000 from June 2009i.e. 4 years with Ph.D. Our SAU finally says after asking for our Self appraisal performa that I am not eligible as I did not do my orientation and all recruited after 2005 were in the same category. Please let me know as to who has to conduct the orientation? My university conducted orientation programme in 2010 and in three batches . They gave the promotion from stage 1-2 from the date of completion of orientation putting juniors first and seniors after coz the seniors got the chance to complete their orientation in third batch. Kindly guide as we are at a great loss as in 2014 we are eligible for stage three and if they count the orientation we go behind for two years in promotion

Dear AKSLK,

This is difficult to understand why ICAR is treating its Scientist's differently when it is following UGC pay package. It has to follow UGC pay package in toto. UGC has designated lecturer (SG) as Associate Professor but ICAR designated its Scientists(SG) as Scientist. This clause has made all the difference. This discrimination, however, will not stand a single hearing in the court. You do not have any other option left at your hand and the legal way remains the only path left to redress your grievances. As per the reliable sources, many employees have represented their case but failed to get any assurance. You may get in touch with Scientists having similar fate and associating their cases with you strengthen your case in the court.

In response to your comment on my previous query. I worked in an NGO KVK since April, 2000 in pay scales 8000-275-13500 till jan,2006 and 15600-39,100 with AGP 5,600(there is no CAS at NGO KVKs) and subsequently I was selected as Program coordinator in the same KVK through interview and palced in 15,600-39,100 AGP 8000 IN April,2012.But due insecurity in the NGO KVK, I was shifted to SAU after selected as Assistant professor (15,600-39,100 AGP 6000) in june,2013.since the SAU dont consider my NGO KVK experience for direct selection as Associate professor at SAU. The SAU oficials told that NGO KVK experience will be considered for CAS and will be promoted as Associate proessor through CAS after probation declared at SAU.

Your case is not very clear to understand. You say on one hand that you are promoted to AGP 8000 and you also say that you have joined in a lower AGP in university. Past service is counted in ICAR and also in the universities but you need experience in the AGP 8000 to get promoted to AGP 9000. First of all you need to get your pay protected and fixed in the AGP 8000 and then think of promotion to AGP 9000.

I was placed in PB IV with a pay of Rs. 37400 + RGP of Rs. 9000 as on 1.1.2006. Subsequently, As per the MHRD notification (as provided at XIV), I should have been given a minimum pay of Rs. 43000 + RGP of Rs. 10000 from the date of my joining the post of Principal Scientist i.e. 25.06.2007 as I was directly recruited. However, contrary to the rules, I was denied Minimum pay of Rs. 43000 + 10000, and instead given only 40890 + 1000o as on 25.06.2007 as per the Fitment Table 5. Now, I would like to know whether Fitment Tables can be referred to for fixing pay as on 25.06.2007 , i.e. one and half year later to 1.1.2006.

Please clarify this and suggest me as to what to do to get justice in this case.

Thank you and expecting a clarification from any one at an early date.

Can u give details on how scientists got ph. d increments twice in the earlier policy.

As per the present policy a scientist/ Assistant Professor who joins without Ph.D and completes the Ph.D after 14 years gets a pay of PB4 with 3 increments. On the other hand one who joins with Ph.D, would be receiving a pay of PB4 with 2 increments after 14 years of service. Though both of them appears to be having 14 years of service, the one joined without Ph. D avails a study period of 3 years out of these 14 yeras and actually working for 11 years only for the organisation.

Though on paper it appears that Ph.D degree holders are given benefits, major benefits in terms of service, increments for longer period of service are given to those who join without Ph.D.

Benefit of increments is allowed once in service life. Some of the Scientists got it twice and due to this reason increments were withdrawn. Disparity is already there.Several Scientists(SG) were placed in PB IV w.e.f. 1-1-2006 whereas many with Ph.D. got promoted through CAS as Sr. Scientist w.e.f. 1-1-2006 and placed in PB III with RGP of 8000. Such Scientists got placement in PB IV on 1.1.2009 after completion of 3 years in RGP 8000. Funny thing is such Scientists became eligible for PS just after completing 3 years in PB IV say on 1.1.2012. On the other hand Scientists (SG) placed in PB IV with RGP of 9000 had to serve 3 complete years in RGP 9000 after award of Ph.D. This is in complete violation of equal pay for equal work. ICAR is adopting UGC package but UGC has changed the designation of Lecturer (SG) to Associate Professor on placement to PB 4 and it made them eligible to Professor on the date of award of Ph.D. Hence, ICAR is not following UGC in toto and changing UGC regulations to its whims and fancies for ICAR Scientists.

As per guidelines, increments on account of Ph D are withdrawn when one moves to Ph.D. as there is a significant jump in pay scales. Movement from PB 3 to PB 4 is also given to those who are in Selection grade. If Ph.D incremnts are given to Selection grade in PB 4 and removing the same benefit to all others who completed Ph.D before coming to PB4, would it not be creating disparity in pay and demotivating.

Dear Dr Ajay Kumar Singh, You'll become eligible for PB IV after completion of 3 years service in RGP of 8000.You'll be assessed by DPC in your institute according to revised score card by ICAR. I'll suggest you to go through the revised score card and plan your work and activities considering marks assigned to different activities. As per the revised score card, you have to publish several leaflets (3), bulletin of not less than 21 pages (3), act as Co-PI or PI in a minimum number of research projects etc. I'll advise you to have a look at revised score card available at ICAR site.

Dear AKSLK , You will be eligible for promotion to PS in PS only after Nov 2014. Had you been in an university or college, you could be promoted to Professor in Nov 2011 (date you were awarded your Ph.D.). This anomaly is due to the change of designation of Scientist (SG) to Scientist after implementation of 6th Pay revision. UGC has changed designation of lecturer (SG) to Associate Professor after placement in PB IV irrespective of the fact whether he has Ph.D. or not but ICAR's change of designation is costing its Scientists (non-Ph.D) placed in PB IV on or after 2006 several years of loss for promotion to PS. If ICAR scientists take up matter for legal justification, they are likely to get what college & university teachers have already achieved.

I feel there is clear violation of rules by ICAR with regards to fixation of pay for principal scientists recruited directly during 01.01.2006 - 31.12.2008 under ICAR system. ICAR follows the UGC pay structure in toto for its scientists. The MHRD/UGC provides for fixation of pay of directly recruited professor (equivalent to principal scientist in ICAR) at not less than Rs. 43000 with effect from 01.01.2006. The ICAR, however, ignores this and wishfully creates confusion by unnecessarily bringing in terms like with "existing qualification and revised qualification" A principal scientist directly recruited in 2006/2007/2008/2009/2010/2011 was actually recruited on the basis of the qualification in force at the time of recruitment. It is beyond anybody's understanding as to how qualifications for recruitment to a particular post are linked to pay fixation. Minimum Pay is specfic to the post and not the qualification. It appears that the sole aim of ICAR is to discourage merit in science and deny legitimate minimum pay of Rs. 43000 to all directly recruited principal scientists who faced competition and got selected on the basis of their merit. Further, the MHRD in its letter to UGC (No. 1 - 36/2009.U.II, dated 26th Aug., 2010) has given direction to allow Rs.43000 as entry level pay in the pay band of Rs. 37400 - 67000 (PB-4) plus grade pay of 10000 (identical with the pay band and grade pay of principal scientist under ICAR)to directly recruited principals of UG and PG colleges appointed on or after 1.1.2006. ICAR also needs to issue similar direction at the earliest. But in all probability, it will not act for sure. Can anybody throw some light as to how to get justice in this matter? Expecting some useful replies.

Why do ICAR has downgraded its own Scientists giving them lower designation (Scientist) than College & Universities' Associate Professors (after 6th pay revision). ICAR Scientists will be at loss of at least 3 years if they becomes eligible for PS serving 3 years in PB IV with RGP 9000/- after award of Ph.D. They will also become Junior to Associate Professors in case of lateral movement from UGC to ICAR system when both are governed by UGC pay package. ICAR Scientists may get justice from the court in case ICAR does not resolve the anomaly.

There is one more interesting thing about policies. Several PS have moved to court to claim seniority based on acquiring Ph.D. earlier than others and also advance increments. In all such cases, ICAR has given its opinion to court stating that ICAR does not discriminate its Scientists based on Ph.D.

A story was in circulation during Rajiv Gandhi regime. People tried to grab some benefits on account of Ph.D. However, Rajiv Gandhi (then PM) refused it saying it will demoralize Scientists and create discrimination. ZDuring Rajiv's regime such element could not succeed but they got it done after Rajiv's death. However, this change of policy is said to harm work culture in universities and ICAR both.

Hi CAS,its really funny situation. ICAR has adapted UGC scales and then tries to amends some of UGC recommendations. There is a lot of discrepancy in its saying and doings. Earlier ICAR has different pay package for its scientists and it was somewhat similar to scientists of other organizations like CSIR & DRDO. Scientists were accessed after every five year and promoted to next scale. Then ICAR adapted UGC scales under pressure from Scientists forum. Now ICAR follows UGC pay scales in toto but inserts its own clauses. UGC changed designation of Assist. professors/Lectures SG to Associate Professors who have completed 6 years on or after 1.1.2006 but ICAR did not do it. It did not clarify whether Scientists in Scientist (SG) will be automatically become Senior Scientist or they have to be reassessed for change of designation.

Let's focus on your question. There was a circular from ICAR stating that Scientists serving as the Scientist (SG) have to serve 8 years as Senior Scientist after acquiring Ph.D. to become eligible for Principal Scientist post. However, ICAR amended this rule later and stipulated that eligibility for the PS will be Senior Scientist with with 8 years of experience or a Scientist with Ph.D . having 8 years of experience as senior scientist or in equivalent pay scale of Rs 12000-18300. This made Scientist (SG) eligible for promotion to PS after they acquire the Ph.D. if they have completed the required period. This makes sense that scientists with Ph.D. having served 3 years in RGP 9000 eligible for promotion under CAS.

Dear Crusader, you have mentioned in the hub that a Scientist may move from RGP 9000 to RGP 10,000 after serving 3 years in RGP of 9000 and after acquiring Ph.D. If a scientist has served 3 years in RGP 9000 and acquired Ph.D. on last day of 3rd year, is he eligible for CAS for the RGP 10000/-.

Dear sir

As per old CAS for scientist,there was provision of two increments for designation of Sr.Scientist but in new CAS w.e.f Jan 2009, there is no provision of two advance increments for Sr. Scientist through CAS. I was Scientist (SG) w.e.f 12.4.2004 to 29 Sept 2009. Consequent upon acquiring Ph.D, I have been designated as Sr. Scientist by folowing the procedure as prescibed in CAS 2000. I am in dilemma whether grant of these two advance increment is applicable for me because in this case there is only change of designation rather than grade pay. Therefore, kindly clarify whether I am elogible for two advance increments of grant of designation from Scientist ( SG) to Sr. Scientist or my case will also be treated as per policy prescribed in new CAS 2009.

Dear Dr R S Mehta, you became eligible for Principal Scientist after completion of minimum requirement of three years in PB IV. ICAR has already modified in one of its circular the eligibility for PS. First ICAR gave clarification that one has to serve as Senior scientist for 8 years to become eligible for PS post but later on it issued a circular that a Scientist who has served either in the scale of Sr. Scientist or equivalent scale becomes eligible for PS post. If you have a look at recent advertisements (20110 for the post of PS, you will observe that essential requirement is not Senior Scientist but scale of Sr. Scientist or equivalent. However, one need to possess Ph.D, as an essential qualification for PS post.

Thanks for your clarification. Some Scientists have joined as Sr Scientist through direct selection after 1.1.2009. Will the upgradation to PB4 be done also for them automatically or they need to undergo CAS again. In both the cases Direct recruitment has been done with the existing qualification only. Because ICAR has not notified any revised qualification for Sr Scientist recruitment so far.

Dear Saha, You have to complete 5 years service in SS scale.

Dear Dr Rajan, your pay was fixed at 39690+10000 because ICAR did not advertise PS post till date with revised qualifications. Directly recruited PS with existing qualifications are to be fixed at the minimum of Rs 39690.

I am working as principal scientist under ICAR system( equivalent to professor under UGC). As on 1.1.06, I was senior scientist with more than 5 years service in the pre-revised pay scale of 12000 -420 -18300 and as such my pay was revised fixed at 37400 + 9000 (GP) on 1.1.2006. Subsequently I was selected as Principal Scientist through direct recruitment on 26.06.2007. My pay in the principal scientist cadre wwas fixed at 39690 + 10000 (GP). Clearly I am denied the pay of Rs. 43000 + 10000 as specified in MHRD and UGC pay scale. Can anybody suggest me as to what I shoud do to get justice in this regard.

Perhaps you could not understand UGC REGULATION PROPERLY.An ICAR Senior scientist is equivalent to an Asso.Professor (presently)and all the asso.Professor who come either directly or through CAS will remain in PB3 (AGP/RGP 8000) for thee years. After three years in agp/rgp 8000 they would be promoted to PB4 WITH AGP AS 9000.According to my knowledge seperate regulations would come in due corse of time for ICAR scientists and for Agrl. Universities also.

After regulation ICAR Scientist should have only 3 designation - Scientist, Sr Scientist and Principal Scientist. Directly recruited Sr Scientist will be in PB4 with RGP of Rs.9000. But this advt says ICAR is going to recruit Sr Scientist (Direct) in the pay scale of 15600-39100 + RGP Rs 8000. What kind of Sr Scientist is going to be recruited by ICAR in this pay scale?
